Abstract

Embodiments of mechanisms for forming a semiconductor device are provided. The semiconductor device includes a gate stack on a semiconductor substrate. In some embodiments, the semiconductor device further includes a semiconductor element, such as for example, a resistor, on the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor device includes a metal silicide layer on at least one of the gate stack, the source region, and the drain region. The semiconductor device also includes a blocking region in a portion of the semiconductor element. In some embodiments, the blocking region includes first dopants and second dopants with an atomic radius smaller than that of the first dopants.
